So generally, I read this because I think you guys are on a good track for JIT optimisation and other fun things.<BR/><BR/>I guess I'm looking forward to the eventual series of posts that talks about how you can start using this on your system to replace your system Python, followed by you talking the regular Python core developers into working directly in PyPy instead. =)Jeff Baileyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07989302687708353872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971202189709462152.post-44922142847502697212008-11-03T17:03:00.000+01:002008-11-03T17:03:00.000+01:00I am not especially in favour of weekly summaries,...I am not especially in favour of weekly summaries, unless there is some interesting progress to report. Otherwise you end up with someone filling in progress reports because they feel obliged to, rather than to celebrate new features, and it becomes a chore.<BR/><BR/>That said, PyPy has many subprojects; maybe having a round-robin system where we get a progress report from a different project every week would be interesting.Damian Cugleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14035230583687290855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971202189709462152.post-83580322568967871942008-11-03T16:03:00.000+01:002008-11-03T16:03:00.000+01:00Personaly, I get very anxious when you say "it wil...Personaly, I get very anxious when you say "it will be ready when it's ready". Aaarghhh! Please, at least lie a little bit :-). <BR/>For example: "Pypy is now 1.8x slower than cpython, but after [feature here] it will be 10x faster".<BR/>Well, just kidding.

Those are mostly even fun to write, it's just usually quite a bit of work. I actually have a vague plan to give a basic introduction of the ideas behind the JIT (but will still take some time, I am busy with the lecture at the moment).<BR/><BR/>About more summaries of what happens: it requires a lot of discipline (see the Python-dev summaries) and I am not sure we have that :-). It would need somebody dedicated to care for it, and that one won't be me at the moment.Carl Friedrich Bolzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00518922641059511014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971202189709462152.post-34270655183511693262008-11-03T13:57:00.000+01:002008-11-03T13:57:00.000+01:00Hi,I think the blog is pretty good.
